A member asked:
What are my chances of catching hiv from hairdresser using her hand (not sure if she had any open wound/what if she had?) touching my 10+ hours paper cut wound on my forehead at the barber shop?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Zero risk, no worries. Nobody ever catches HIV from this sort of contact. If you're not having sex or sharing drug injection equipment with other people, you'll never get HIV. Nothing to worry about.
